Lady Lestrange is claiming I'll still get my pay. Has "back-up assets," whatever those might be.
And you should know that there's a major recruitment play underway. Any pureblood (or not-quite pureblood) with vague connections to the old MLE is being drawn in, the younger and thirstier the better. All those sods who were in the council challenge last year, for instance--the ones not already working for you, that is.
Possibly you are wondering why anyone would willingly hop on broom?
I'm not surprised they have backup assets, and I'm sure she's prioritising paying the Aurors and Enforcers. Do you know whether she's paying camp guards and administrators? Not to mention the rest of the Ministry. I doubt Rookwood would notice whether he's still drawing a salary or not, but his subordinates might.
I assume Bellatrix isn't doing the recruiting herself. Is she sending you out recruiting? Ptolemy? I'd probably send Virgil Crispin, in her shoes.
I wish we could send Daphne -- she was brilliant at this sort of thing.
No clue who's being paid and who isn't. But if someone isn't, there will no doubt be grousing soon enough.
Ptolemy. I'm helping him a bit, as a good mate ought to. Crispin's on it, too.
Yeah, I was just thinking about her. She was the talk of New London, had friends and connections from here to the moon, Head Girl, not to mention daughter of the late and great Rabastan Lestrange.
Bet your lot is a bit sorry they let her get murdered right about now, aren't they?
Cos Black and the Longbottoms are hardly welcome faces after all these years, like it or not. Minister Rowle might not be a popular bloke, but the people of New London feel like he's one of "them."
A devil, sure, but still the devil you know. You know?

Wondering what that side has, and you don't?
